i feel for his knees and lower back 20 years from now.

why? if he's smart and trains properly he'll do fine. obviously he has freakish genetics and his connective tissues are way stronger than the average 18 year old. not snapping at you but i just hate when people look at powerlifters and assume that they will be crippled because they train heavy.

Ten years and he'll be thrashed. What is the point? There is no money in powerlifting.

really? well ive been training since 14, powerlifting since 18 and im turning 26 next week. im more flexible and mobile than any one i know, my joints are as strong and healthy as they can possibly be. only thing i have to complain about is a little patella tendonitis in my knees. my back is like steel, and i lift shit all day long at work then go to the gym and deadlift and squat as heavy as possible. i suppose i will suddenly fall apart though

powerlifting doesnt destroy joints and bodies, lifting like a dumbass with poor technique does

 

[needtogetaas]

Love it.

I been power lifting for 12 years now and I still left the same way and always will. I love the raw power and strength. its a natural high to put up waits most men only dream of. I love killing that shit. I love having the power to crush a man who thinks he looks good. 200lb bench lmao I curl that on a light day.

Thats me and what I like though and to each his own right. We are all in it together.
